Trapezoids Chapter 6.6
2
TrapezoidDef: A Quadrilateral with exactly one pair of parallel sides. The parallel sides are called the bases. The non-parallel sides are called the legs. A trapezoid has two pairs of base angles. If the legs are congruent, then it is called an isosceles trapezoid.

ABCD is a quadrilateral with vertices A(5, 1), B(–3, 1), C(–2, 3), and D(2, 4). Determine whether ABCD is an isosceles trapezoid. Explain.
10
Lesson 6 Ex3 Identify Trapezoids slope of Answer: Exactly one pair of opposite sides are parallel, So, ABCD is a trapezoid.
11
Lesson 6 Ex3 Identify Trapezoids Answer:Since the legs are not congruent, ABCD is not an isosceles trapezoid. Use the Distance Formula to show that the legs are congruent.
